  FF eats up a lot of memory. I really hate the way my laptop fan whirrs when I run my FF. :( Is it better with Chrome or Opera?

  Opera uses between 250 - 300MB of memory on my laptop, but it loads even faster than Firefox.

  But isn't this like... taking steroids then run uphill 500m (Opera) and jogging 500m on a level surface (FF)... :p

  I have no issues with the loading time for my FF... It usually uses up around 150MB of memory... Makes me feel stressed for the laptop cos it gets kinda hot.... :p

  Noooo... Maybe max like, 5-6 tabs.

  I don't really have any fancy fancy plugins and add-ons too. They're all the basic stuff like Shockwave, Adobe Acrobat, Java Console...Are they heavy-duty?

  The only fancyfancy things I have are the themes... 4 of them... which I've disabled a long time ago.

  I have to get used to Chrome, and rebookmark all my favourite sites. My favourites in IE is a mile long

  IE is acting strange, no more off line message when I am on line, but sgF page now have all quotes expanded. This is because of Win Vista, everytime install update, something else goes haywire.

  Chrome so far seems to be working glitchless.

  i find nothing wrong with IE

  I like the simplicity of chrome, unfortunately its too simple, so I stuck with FF. The only time my FF ever lags is when I load cafe world. Computer memory is not an issue for me, only loading cafe world is.

  I don't like IE, because it makes everything so complicated, especially the security settings thing, you'll never figure them out. Its the last browser I ever use if the other 2 browsers fail to load, errrr cafe world.

  IE was working ok, until my latest Windows update.

  It was working off-line, when I am on-line, and cannot load any web page. 

  Have to use Chrome to google for solution to the problem.

  Still the pages don't seem to load well.

  So might as well use Chrome.
